Skeletons without hands and feet found at Hermann Göring’s house

By 202 0

Archaeologists recently made a significant discovery at the Wolf’s Lair, a former Nazi military base located in Gierloz, northeastern Poland. During a dig prompted by the unearthing of a fragment of human skull on February 24, they uncovered five human skeletons missing hands and feet.

The Latebra Foundation, a historical organization based in Gdansk, confirmed that the remains belonged to three adults, a teenager, and a newborn. These bodies were found near a house once occupied by Nazi commander Hermann Göring, a prominent figure in World War II history.

The skeletons were arranged in close proximity to each other, facing the same direction, amidst remnants of burned boards and sewage infrastructure. Despite the absence of clothing, authorities found no evident signs of trauma on the remains.

Initially mistaking the site for an old bathroom, the excavation team was surprised when they discovered ashes and a burnt key. Polish police have since launched an investigation into the discovery, with many questions still unanswered.

Further investigation, including carbon dating to determine the age of the remains, is deemed necessary by experts. The Wolf’s Lair, Hitler’s Eastern Front headquarters, holds immense historical significance, having been strategically situated in the forests of northeastern Poland.

Paris Ritz: Missing €750k ring found in hotel vacuum bag

By 405 0

A €750,000 (£643,000) ring, initially reported missing at the Ritz hotel in Paris, has been discovered inside a vacuum cleaner. The owner, a Malaysian businesswoman staying at the hotel, suspected theft by an employee and filed a police complaint on Friday. Ritz security guards found the ring in the vacuum bag on Sunday, resolving the mystery. Despite the guest having traveled to London, she plans to return to Paris to retrieve her ring.

The Ritz extended an offer of three additional nights to compensate for the inconvenience caused to the guest, but she is reportedly not interested in taking up the offer. The hotel expressed gratitude for the security guards’ meticulous efforts in locating the missing ring and commended their integrity and professionalism.

According to the businesswoman, she left the ring on a table in her hotel room on Friday while she went shopping in the city. Upon her return, the ring was nowhere to be found. The police are currently safeguarding the ring until the owner can collect it.

This incident is not the first time that valuable items have gone missing at the Ritz hotel. In 2018, a group of five armed men stole over €4m (£3.5m) worth of merchandise from a jewelry shop within the renowned establishment. Additionally, later that year, an unnamed member of the Saudi royal family reported the theft of hundreds of thousands of pounds’ worth of jewelry from her hotel room suite.

Missing Climber from 1986 Found as Melting Swiss Glacier Reveals Secrets

By 319 0

Human remains discovered on a glacier near the Matterhorn in Switzerland have been identified as the body of a German climber who had been missing since 1986. The finding is one of several long-held secrets revealed by the melting Alpine glaciers, which are shrinking rapidly due to climate change.

The Theodul glacier, where the body was found, has experienced a significant retreat in recent years. This glacier is part of Zermatt’s renowned year-round ski region, the highest in Europe. However, global warming has caused the alpine ice fields to be particularly vulnerable. As a result, various objects and remains, lost for decades, have emerged from the melting ice in recent years.

Such discoveries have included a crashed plane from 1968 and the remains of missing climbers from past decades. Furthermore, the melting ice has even led to changes in international borders between Switzerland and Italy, with the shifting position of the drainage divide.

The consequences of the glacier melt extend beyond the discovery of historical artifacts and climbers; these glaciers are vital to Europe’s environment, providing essential water sources for rivers like the Rhine and Danube, and helping maintain aquatic ecosystems. Unfortunately, the rapid rate of ice retreat observed by experts indicates that most Alpine glaciers could vanish by the end of the century. As global temperatures continue to rise, the fear of further ice loss and its far-reaching impacts on the environment persists.
